Description Matt Turner gentoo-dev 2020-03-27 17:20:59 UTC
Created attachment 626438 [details]
dead-release-media.txt

Attached is a list of release media as of March 26. Format is <timestamp> <filename> <status>, where <status> is CURRENT if it is current and should be kept, BROKEN if the file appears to have been generated but is no longer valid, or a file/directory name that supersedes it.

robbat2 suggested a list of things to include here:

1) review existing historical hosting (AWS S3 Glacier for a copy?)
2) should historical/ still be offered to the mirrors?
3) shifting the newly identified files

I moved these to releases-backup, they should be removed from the mirrors in a day or so.

# Create directory tree under backup dir.
find releases/ -type d -print0 | xargs -0 -n 1 -I\{\} mkdir releases-backup/\{\}

# Remove non-current files
grep -v CURRENT removal-list | cut -d' ' -f2 | xargs -n1 -I\{\} mv "{}" "releases-backup/{}"

You can mv them back if we need any of em.
